Xerography Turns 75
Genesis Of An Idea
Carlson, an only child, was born in Seattle in 1906. As a teenager, he worked for a printer and eventually acquired a press of his own, which he used to publish a small magazine for amateur chemists. It was a short-lived experiment, but it had a lasting effect.
"This experience did impress me with the difficulty of getting words into hard copy, and this, in turn, started me thinking about duplicating processes," Carlson recalled, years later.
